PATHFINDER RPG: BOOK OF THE DAMNED EXPLORES THE WORKINGS OF THE POWERFUL FORCES OF EVIL

3/23/2017

 
Now Available for Pre-Order, Book of the Damned Takes Players from the Darkest Depths of the Demon-Haunted Abyss, to the Apocalyptic Realm of Abaddon and the Infernal Layers of Hell Itself
 
REDMOND, WA (March 23, 2017): Paizo Inc., publisher of the award-winning Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and Pathfinder Adventure Card Game, announces today the forthcoming Pathfinder RPG: Book of the Damned hardcover rulebook will be released September 2017 and is now available for pre-order (MSRP $44.99).

The denizens of the evil planes of existence have long tempted, tormented, and tortured mortal life. From the lowliest imp to the mightiest demon lord, these realms are ripe with horrors and festering with threats to body, mind, and soul, and the routes to knowing these blasphemous secrets are held within the infamous pages of the Book of the Damned.

With details on demon lords and arch devils, information on the realms of Hell, Abaddon, and the Abyss, and rules for incorporating fiendish influences into the game—be they in the form of foes for heroic parties to face, or temptations for less scrupulous adventurers to consider--Pathfinder RPG: Book of the Damned explores the workings of these powerful forces of evil, focusing on the numerous demigods that influence mortal life and the countless fiends who prey upon the living and dead alike.

Pathfinder RPG Book of the Damned includes:

  • Information on the sinister boons granted to worshipers of dozens of fiendish demigods drawn from the planes of Abaddon, the Abyss, and Hell, including Archdevils, Demon Lords, and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
  • An exploration of the infernal realms of Hell, the sinister reaches of Abaddon, and the bottomless rifts of the Abyss.
  • New feats, spells, magic items, and prestige classes for use by characters who both fight against and serve the forces of darkness.
  • Rules for infernal contracts and sinister rituals.
  • Statistics for several never-before revealed fiends and lavishly-illustrated in-world excerpts from the pages of the notorious Book of the Damned itself.

“Book of the Damned fills my dark soul with devilish delight,” says Paizo Publisher and Chief Creative Officer Erik Mona. “Demons, devils, and darkness are always popular topics around the Pathfinder game table, and Book of the Damned arms players with tools to fight against (or alongside) these paragons of evil, adding a demoniacal twist to any Pathfinder campaign. Are your players taking a trip to Hell? Don’t Satanic Panic! Book of the Damned has all the infernal answers you’re looking for!”

Book of the Damned is a dark and beautiful new hardcover tome for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. For additional information, visit Paizo.

Be A God With Mythic Battles: Pantheon, Now on Kickstarter

11/1/2016

 
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

As a Famous God of Greek Mythology Players will Assemble Warriors, Lead Troops into Battle, Create Their Own Pantheon and Become the New Ruler of Olympus in Highly Anticipated Miniatures Board Game

PARIS, FRANCE (November 1, 2016): After more than a year in development and rave reviews from hundreds of demos at game conventions worldwide, Mythic Games and Monolith Entertainment announce today the launch of the Mythic Battles: Pantheon Kickstarter. The Mythic Battles: Pantheon Kickstarter is now live and runs through December 2, 2016.

Mythic Battles: Pantheon features a redesign by original Mythic Battles designer Benoit Vogt and game industry veteran Léonidas Vesperini, innovative game play for two-four players in both scenarios and skirmishes, highly detailed miniatures in scaled human, god and titan sizes and artwork by legendary fantasy artists Stefan Kopinksi, Paolo Parente, Guillem H. Pongiluppi and Loic Muzy.

“Players will be gods in the golden age of ancient Greece as they battle to become the new ruler of Olympus,” says Léonidas Vesperini, project manager of Mythic Games. “We’ve been developing Mythic Battles: Pantheon for more than a year and the result is a truly epic miniatures board game experience!”

The mighty Titans of Greek lore awoke and unleashed a massive attack on Olympus. While the Titans were ultimately defeated, the world was ravaged and the surviving Olympians now mere mortals. As the former Gods awake to a broken world, Mythic Battles: Pantheon begins their adventure through Olympus, Styx and the Labyrinth of Minos to regain the glory left decimated by the wrath of the Titans. Playing as Zeus, Athena or any number of Greek gods alongside an army of heroes such as Achilles and Hercules and monsters such as the Hydra, Cerberus and Medusa, in victory players will be a god.

Backers can support the publishing of Mythic Battles: Pantheon for a $99 God Pledge which includes the game’s base set with 37 highly detailed figures, 13 Character Dashboards with adjustable stat ruler, 10 engraved dice, 2 two-sided foldable game boards representing four battlegrounds (Olympus, Styx, Tartarus and Minos Labyrinth), one scenario booklet and 15 Omphalos gems. 1000 “Early Bird” backers will get the God Pledge at a $10 discount. All backers will receive a Kickstarter Exclusive Apollo, God of Art and Sun, 70mm figure with Character Dashboard and Activation Cards. The Mythic Battles: Pantheon Kickstarter will also offer a plethora of exciting add-ons, stretch goals, bonuses and other exclusive collectibles and items to enhance game play.

Mythic Battles: Pantheon is expected to release in hobby game stores worldwide in late 2017. For more information, visit the Kickstarter campaign now in progress.

Shadows of Esteren: Dearg, A Story of Love, Despair, Beauty and Death, Now On Kickstarter

10/27/2016

 
Dark Fantasy RPG Gets New Rulebook with Innovative New Game Mechanics and Concepts Designed to Put Players Face To Face With Their Inner Demons

  PARIS, FRANCE (October 27, 2016) – Agate RPG, publisher of the award-winning Shadows of Esteren, announces today plans for Shadows of Esteren: Dearg, the third rulebook for the fan-favorite medieval horror roleplaying game and the launch of the Kickstarter to fund the publishing of this new must-have tome. The Dearg Kickstarter is now live and runs through November 17th, 2016.

Shadows of Esteren: Dearg puts players at the heart of the game’s narrative in a 500-page, hardcover essential rulebook to be published in two volumes and introduces three new innovative concepts to the world of Shadows of Esteren; Narrative Arcs, Focuses and Modular Scenarios.

Players will define a narrative arc for their character centered on the main themes of Love, Ethics, Guilt and Adoption. Through 21 scenarios, Player Characters are at the heart of the narrative, their own personal stories becoming critical components of the game’s dramatic tension. While the PCs are involved in the same quest, each member of the party has their own history and motivations. Among the campaign’s 21 scenarios, six are Focuses that will explore each PC’s intimate story, ultimately affecting the direction of the game. Modular Scenarios are comprised of several modules exploring various facets of a theme or character and offer the Game Leader several ways the scenario can evolve. Each module is symbolized by a tarot card drawn from Dearg’s tarot and by connecting the modules the Game Leader can create a story of their own.

“Dearg is the result of nearly 10 years of development,” says Agate RPG Creative Director Nelyhann. “Shadows of Esteren players will experience a story that will change their vision of the world of Esteren and bring them ever-closer to its dark secrets and to their own inner demons.”

Since first launching on Kickstarter in 2012, Shadows of Esteren has received more than a dozen awards for its art, production value and cartography, earned a silver ENnie Award for Product of the Year and has thousands of devoted players worldwide.

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA (September 15, 2016) – Syrinscape, creator of the award-winning apps that put the power of custom, movie-like sound effects, soundscapes, music, and dynamic tabletop audio solutions at the fingertips of the gamer, announces today the release of a slew of new SoundSets and SoundPacks to accompany favorite tabletop games including new locations, encounters, creatures and more for Paizo’s Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Green Ronin’s Mutants & Masterminds RPG and Looking For Group’s Orphans & Ashes.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Kintargo Contract SoundPack from Syrinscape

The Kintargo Contract SoundPack accompanies the fifth chapter of the Pathfinder RPG Adventure Path: Hell’s Rebels, with sounds for a bureaucratic arm of Hell replete with devils and fire, a shadow realm monument for planar adventures, shady shadow giants, a conversation with an overpowering dragon and more.

Mutants & Masterminds: Grue Invasion SoundSet from Syrinscape

Shapeshifters, mind readers, telepathic aliens and rayguns; with lasers, explosions, the music of the Shapeshifting Telepath, mental communication and more, surely they are among us.

Mutants & Masterminds: Climactic Space Battle SoundSet from Syrinscape

Super heroes in space with laser guns! High-energy music, heat rays, heroic interludes and fly-bys, plasma bursts, freeze rays, energy beams and more bring all the sounds of an epic space battle to the tabletop.

Mutants & Masterminds: Starship SoundSet from Syrinscape

Whether flying casually or at warp speed, gamers will find themselves inside a starship traversing an asteroid field or orbiting the sun, with scrapes against the hull, solar flares, computer ambience, antimatter relay, engine resonance and more.

Mutants & Masterminds: Time Tunnel SoundSet from Syrinscape

A spectacular spatial anomaly is ready to tear the spaceship apart or flay the minds of the crew. The Time Tunnel SoundSet lets players slide between dimensions and surf the folds of reality itself with space warps, rips in space, subspace particles, gravitational pulls, vertigo, probe launch, ship stress, computer warnings and more.

Orphans & Ashes SoundSet from Syrinscape

The Orphans & Ashes SoundSet includes all of the sounds of a high-drama fire emergency, clanks and clangs, screams, crying children, roraring flames, water hoses, victory sequences, 11 unique music tracks and more, to twist and turn the mood of the Orphans & Ashes game as the situation grows more dire.

 

Gurgles & Gas SoundSet from Syrinscape

The seedy tavern is alive with the clanking of mead flagons, a cozy fireplace and the happy murmuring of the patrons, but there are a lot of foul bodily sounds coming from the drunken bard in the corner. Players can immerse themselves in the wretchedness and retching if they dare.

The award-winning Syrinscape apps bring fantastic, realistic sound to tabletop gaming and are compatible with nearly any mobile device or computer. Sounds for the Pathfinder RPG and the Gurgles and Gas SoundSet are available for the Syrinscape Fantasy Player, Mutants & Masterminds for the Sci-Fi Player and Orphans and Ashes for the Board Game Player. These, along with hundreds of other sound creations for nearly any tabletop game, are available for sale individually or as part of the SuperSyrin Subscription. Syrinscape can also be completely unlocked for free for 30 days at Syrinscape.com/freetrial and includes two free SoundSets to keep after the trial.
